Abstract
Importance. Proficiency in a professional foreign language at the present stage is one of the key requirements determining competitiveness in the labor market. The formation of professional foreign-language communicative competence of medical specialists gives them access to specialized research and journals, since most of them are published exclusively in English. However, in practice, when receiving medical education in residency, the main attention is paid to the study of natural sciences, while learning a foreign language is of secondary importance. Using an integrated approach to learning, it becomes possible to organize a more effective educational process through a comprehensive study of a subject discipline and a foreign language in a single educational space. The purpose of this work is to identify the psychological and pedagogical conditions of training residents of foreign language professional communication based on an integrated approach.Research Methods. The study was conducted using theoretical and empirical methods that allow to study and analyze scientific and methodological literature on the organization of foreign language teaching based on an integrated subject-language approach. The analysis of the literature revealed certain patterns that actualize the need to comply with a number of psychological and pedagogical conditions when teaching residents of foreign language professional communication based on an integrated approach. Based on the available research, the external and internal factors underlying the psychological and pedagogical conditions aimed at optimizing the educational process were summarized.Results and Discussion. In the course of the conducted research, the following psychological and pedagogical conditions for teaching residents of foreign language professional communication based on an integrated approach were identified: 1) motivation of residents to study professional English; 2) possession of professional foreign language competence by residents at the Advanced Mid level on the ACTFL scale; 3) formation of an integrated course of professional foreign language communicative competence and competence in the field of professional communication by the teacher; 4) the methodological dominant in the educational process are professionally oriented cases.Conclusion. The process of teaching residents of foreign language professional communication is not an axiomatic phenomenon, therefore it is directly dependent on a number of psychological and pedagogical conditions. The identified psychological and pedagogical conditions are of a recommendatory nature and act as a starting point for teaching residents of foreign language professional communication based on an integrated approach. The results of the study can be used in the methodology of teaching foreign languages to medical students and residents.
